Vaginal abnormalities
Urol Clin North Am.
1978 Feb.
Abstract
The embryologic development of the vagina is still disputed. The urogenital sinus and the mesonephric (wolffian) and paramesonephric (müllerian) ducts probably all play a role in the development of the vagina. Duplication, agenesis, mesonephric duct remnants, and hymen abnormalities are among the more common congenital anomalies of the vagina.
